Hi Twilightes, Alex Meraz spoke to MLive about how his career changed after New Moon and mentioning Taylor Lautner. Happy reading ^_* -Liana- (via @mlive)
GRAND RAPIDS -- Alex Meraz has sprung into action.
The actor, who plays belligerent werewolf Paul in "The Twilight
Saga: New Moon," has leaped from tiny indie films to the top of the box
office as part of the worldwide sensation that is everything "Twilight."
"(Being in 'New Moon') has changed my life tremendously," the
24-year-old actor and married father of one said in a phone interview.
"Before, I had to fight for auditions. I was never 'Native' enough,
'Latin' enough, 'white' enough. "Now I'm the perfect look," he added wryly. Meraz will appear Saturday at the Grand Rapids Griffins' "Twilight
Night." He'll sign autographs for ticketed fans before the Griffs' 8
p.m. game with the Milwaukee Admirals. (You could win tickets.)
"I've always wanted to go to a hockey game," the Arizona native said.
"Being into mixed martial arts, I always thought hockey was cool." Meraz will get his chance in Grand Rapids, as well as the
opportunity to visit the hometown of his "New Moon" castmate Taylor
Lautner, who also plays a Quileute teen-turned-werewolf in the
"Twilight" sequel.
Based on the books by Stephenie Meyer about a teen girl who falls in
love with a vampire, the new film has earned more than $255 million
domestically and about $500 million worldwide since it opened Nov. 20.
